Role at Brown Paper TicketsUK General ManagerBest part of my jobThis a company where the atmosphere is relaxed and yet positive and progressive, it's great, love that. I can voice my opinions and suggest all sorts of daft things (and there are a lot of these I might add) knowing I'll be heard.I get to do such a variety of stuff within the UK office and being involved in the development of Brown Paper Tickets UK means I get to juggle a lot of balls and it's ok if I, oops, drop one occasionally!! Live and learn.Favourite tool in the Brown Paper Tickets systemI like the new transfer to a friend tool, I think it's going to be really useful for people in today's busy, busy world. Plus I also think the automatic FB page creation is fab!Favourite (one of many as my office wall is covered in quotes!)
